How will they translate the panties line??
even Sega’s normally excellent localization staff too depressed to try to do anything much with that one
How is this game’s script in comparison to Yakuza 0? I had a lot more fun playing that game when I ignored everyone telling me how great the side missions were. I guess helping a little boy to buy porno was mildly amusing but that kinda thing got old really quick and I just focused on the main story instead.
Went back to this after Fallen Order because even bad Yakuza is good.
Chapter 5 is just 90 minutes of cutscene and crossing the street. I can actually handle the lawyer talk okay, that it is now Swerving into talk about pharmaceuticals and Alzheimers is stuff I am less familar with.
But it was pretty much watching this lawyer drama I don’t really care about.
Just picked this up on half off sale yesterday but no idea when I will get to it.
You have to play the game for 20 hours but you eventually get to play as an adult woman and it is fucking great.
Is the House of the Dead minigame good? I kinda just want to play that and Scud Racer.
No.
Scud Racer is pretty good.
As is Virtua Fighter 5 VerA
Does this game have a port of Scud Race in it?
Supposedly although I can’t find a single video of it on YouTube. Motor Raid is in.
Fuck yeah sorry Moto Raid. Sorry.
Everything involving these twins is fucking awful.
Wish I had been more aggressive with all the friendships from the beginning because they gate a lot of the sidequests behind how many friends you have. And often the friendships are just “visit this place periodically.”
The game loves to interrupt you with the Kamurocho Shop Chairman telling you there are ultrabad guys around and you should take care of them. This happens about every 12 minutes.
I unlocked the girlfriend sub-game about 25 hours in. Against my previous judgement to keep Yagami volcel I tried it. It is maybe the most that this kind of thing in RgG games has felt like two adults getting to know each other. The dating choices are Adult OL that works in IT, 19 year old country girl trying to make it as a singer, and the female twin. I went on two dates with the OL and decided I had seen enough.
A lot of the side quests are pretty lazy this time around.
I was also wrong about this it is very barebones VF5FS.
I asusme it is the same one that is in Yakuza 6, which is perfectly servicable, but lacks all the character customization stuff. Still good times for multiplayer, though.
This definitely gets better as it goes on. Chapter 9 was also just watching a 90 minute drama again. Maybe it was trying to set me up towards the end game because in the middle of a conversation three times it stopped and just let me do open world stuff and then come back to it. It was weird. Also in that convo was a labored “Wait what did you just say?” dialog.
Also I am still playing with Pierre Taki so the update did not overwrite my copy??? It honestly plays like something happened because this guy disspears for a huge junk of the story and then reappears for like a few seconds.
Also I fought a guy that looked like Jared Leto Joker.
It really helps I came back to this game and got to skip the overbearing first 10 hours of a Yakuza game.
